That's better, but we also need a commit message and and Signed-off-by
line from you. Take a look at the general format of the patches I CCed
you on and there's some more information under Documentation/:

	Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

The easiest is probably to use git-format-patch and git-send-email to
prevent the patch from being corrupted (e.g. the tabs below have been
replaced by spaces).

Are you sure that the TB uses the alternate encoding?

Charles, could you help us out here? Which other device types use the
alternate encoding (e.g. HX(A) or TB) if any?

Please avoid c99-style comments, but perhaps the comment at the start of
function is sufficient here.

Looks great otherwise.

This works too if you don't want to pass in the port to
pl2303_encode_baud_rate_divisor() and hide the device-type differences
there (e.g. to make the logic in pl2303_encode_baud_rate() easier to
follow).
